Devouring Evolution Begins with Hedgehogs

No wonder he looks so weird!It's creepy enough to be told by a predator that "you're not eating enough."

"Ah, here." For a while, Liu Ergou was a little dumbfounded.

"Come on, I'll go and ask that old gargoyle what's going on."

Of course, Liu Ergou has to go in person, and Eranster can't ask the old gargoyle, "How do you think our Myth tastes like?", right?

When they arrived at the construction site, the old gargoyle was not assigned to hunt today, and was in a petrified state to maintain energy at the moment.

"Get up! I have some questions to ask you!" Liu Ergou knocked hard on the old gargoyle's shell, "They told me you told me. What's your name?"

The old gargoyle, who was motionless like a stone sculpture, immediately woke up, the stone skin of its whole body squeezed against each other, making a roar like a millstone.

"Your Excellency, just call me Winston." The old gargoyle lowered his head and said humbly.

"Winston" Liu Ergou immediately had the image of a certain gorilla addicted to eating peanut butter appearing in his mind.

Then he asked again: "Well, Winston, please tell me in detail, what is the 'malnutrition' you told them about?"

Winston looked at the group of people beside Liu Ergou, immediately understood, and replied: "My lord, it is like this. We gargoyles absorb the life energy of their prey by sucking blood. You must know this. "

Seeing Liu Ergou nodded, Winston said again: "Originally we only sucked the blood of monsters in the Sunset Mountains. There are two reasons for this."

"One of them is naturally because we don't want to attack intelligent races. We suck blood only for survival, not to start wars with other races. Naturally, we won't provoke them if we have nothing to do."

"The second reason is that these orcs in the wasteland are really shriveled compared to the fleshy monsters in the Sunset Mountains."

"For example, although we are open to any kind of blood, there is a kind of mud frog in the Sunset Mountains that feeds on moss all the year round.

Although the mud frog has a large body and a lot of blood, but because it only eats moss, the nutrition in its body is too little, and the life energy in its blood is also very thin. "

"So I would venture to guess that the problem of the Mys rat race should also be caused by malnutrition;

As for the Olo owl tribe, although I have never sucked their blood, I am afraid it is also caused by this reason. "

After replying respectfully, Winston lowered his head again.

It is said that the one who knows oneself best is always the enemy, and today Liu Ergou has seen it.

It's just that, according to Winston's "understanding" method, it's more about dining experience than understanding the opponent's strength.

Dianping gargoyle version?Liu Ergou smiled secretly in his heart, and quickly dragged back his wandering thoughts.

"Although I don't want to admit it, it's true that, as the stone statue Winston said, our Mys rat tribe is indeed malnourished all the year round." Eranster listened and said slowly.

"The northern wilderness is dry and rainless all year round, and there is no vegetation growing, let alone growing crops.

Besides, we are originally people abandoned by the empire, whether it is raw materials or planting technology, there is no way to talk about it in this northern wasteland. "

"Our Mys Rat Clan eats a kind of mushroom in the cave all the year round. Even if we have meat to eat with the boss, it still doesn't have much nutrition.

In fact, in our family, there are fewer and fewer rats among the newborns.”

After saying this, Ernest let out a long sigh.

Bufix on the side also had a bitter face, presumably there are similar problems in the clan.Eating meat alone will naturally lack a lot of nutrients. Liu Ergou, a fat man in the previous life, knew this very well.

Not to mention the fact that the meat sent back to the camp had been processed by gargoyles draining their blood.

Like this kind of ordinary monster, most of the life energy is concentrated in the blood. After sucking the blood, there is naturally nothing left in the flesh.

To solve this problem, we must find ways to produce more nutrient-dense food.

"Sylvie, bring me the map of the northern wilderness." Liu Ergou pretended to be pacing and thinking, and took the opportunity to ask Sylvie.

Although it is called "Wildland", the terrain here is far from being as simple as a plain.

The entire northern wilderness to the east is completely closed by the sunset mountains as high as thousands of meters like a natural moat. Only at the end near the Dibalo Sea is a huge canyon across it as the only passage.

To the west and south of the Badlands, it is surrounded by the equally majestic San Diego River.

The Sandias River, which rises from the Sunset Mountains in the east and flows out of the Baltic Sea in the west, has been used by the Orc Empire as a natural line of defense in the north since ancient times. When he saw the Sandias River for the first time, Liu Ergou was also shocked.

As for the north of the wilderness, due to the erosion and erosion of the Dibaltic Sea all year round, the Sunset Mountains rise in the east and the long coastline at the mouth of the San Diego River in the west.

There are two kinds of wonders at the same time, steep cliffs and vast beaches.However, due to the changeable currents here, there are not many good ports suitable for ships to dock on the north coast.

Apart from these, even in the center of the wilderness covered by dust all year round, the terrain also has ups and downs.For example, the camp of Liu Ergou and his party is located on a rather dangerous plateau.

In terms of area alone, the entire northern wilderness is about three-quarters the size of the Australian continent on Earth.And the plateau where Liu Ergou is located is almost as big as the North Island of New Zealand.

Sensing Liu Ergou's thoughts, the system automatically gave him a very desperate answer:

"The straight-line distance from this place to the nearest point of the Santias River: 1104 kilometers."

It seems that water diversion irrigation is impossible, what about groundwater?
"Sorry, according to system calculations, the lowest point of the plateau (calculated at sea level) is 285 meters, and the highest point is 940 meters. The possibility of obtaining groundwater with current productivity: 0"

It's true, digging a well nearly 300 meters deep with bare hands?Liu Ergou might as well move directly.

Both roads are blocked, Liu Ergou is completely helpless now.The water on the wasteland mainly comes from a few small lakes, and the small amount of rainfall every year saves a little fresh water that is barely enough for the surrounding tribes to drink.

Want to use this to irrigate enough farmland to feed the two tribes?It's like a drop in the bucket.

The Sunset Mountains are rich in water sources. Coming from the east of the Sunset Mountains, the warm and humid airflow accumulated in the Sunset Mountains all the year round not only makes the mountain tops covered with snow all the year round, but also forms mountain springs of various sizes that can be seen everywhere.

However, with the current strength of the territory, hunting at the foot of the mountain is still like walking on thin ice, going into the mountain to fetch water?If it doesn't work out, it will become a delivery of meat into the mountains.

After all, the place Liu Ergou and the others are exploring now, compared to the entire Sunset Mountain Range, is like a budding new leaf on a century-old giant tree.
